Comments

when?  where?

---

Welsh patronymic naming system used the given name of a person with the connective article "ap" meaning "son of".

    If John Smith had a son and named him Bill, you would refer to "Bill ap John"

So, Bedo ap Richard would refer to Bedo, the son of Richard.Two individuals, not one.
